Flu is a Korean disaster film that is very good. Like a lot of Korean disaster films, there is a lot of humor in them. Although the serious parts are very serious indeed.

The more I like a movie the less I have to say about it. The less I care about spoilers.

The writing is good.

The acting is excellent.

The drama is intense.

You should watch this. Everyone should watch this. It is like the American film from a few years ago, Outbreak, only much better.

I group of illegals are transported into South Korea via a shipping container. One has a cough as they take off. They arrive in Korea with only one survivor. He gets away but a lethal and very fast acting flu starts to spread through the city. The city is quarantined. Things go from bad to worse after that.

CDC people from the US come in and some politico types and they try to take over and eventually want to solve the problem by bombing the city to make sure the flu doesn’t get out of the city. The Korean president has some difficulty wresting control back from the American’s who think they have the right to tell every other country what to do.
